about

Co-written with producer Adam Tilzer, "Dangerous Explorations" is Jordan Popky's second in a series of summer 2021 single releases. Drawing influence from the likes of Leonard Cohen, Lana Del Rey, and Pink Floyd, this song is a deeply intimate moment exploding into an exercise in self-discovery and sexuality. Featuring Paola Bennet and Ellajay on vocal harmonies, with Adam Tilzer doubling the lead vocal down two octaves on the choruses, Popky aims to envelope the listener in sound and invites them to explore the parts of themselves that feel dangerous to face.

lyrics

You told me I looked like a painting

In the light peeking into your room

I was too distracted to answer

So I kissed you



Somebody else was watching

Somebody was moving you

I was lost in my own head

And lost in the view



Dangerous explorations

Falling away in layers of you

Free of expectations

Learning to play like friends often do



Nerves to nervous laughter

The thrill of something new

It meant no more than what it was

It was overdue



You were intrigued and open

And I was collecting clues

Making sense of some great revelation

I already knew



Dangerous explorations

Falling away in layers of you

Free of expectations

Learning to play like friends often do



Dangerous explorations

Falling away in layers of you

Free of expectations

Learning to play like friends often do
